Hello. Welcome to HCM.

I am Dr Jigar(ID Specialist).

I understand your concern and will try to help you out for this.

It seems that you have been suffering from severe infection, possibly fungal. In my view you should immediately consult nearest infectious disease specialist. If i was your doctor then i would have immediately gone for culture and sensitivity both of fungal and bacterial.

This will help in deciding the mode of treatment especially in your case where you have other co morbid conditions. So it is equally important to avoid drug interaction also which can be possible only under expert's guidance.

I hope this will help you. Kindly give your valuable feedback. Wish you a good health.

Regards.

Dr Jigar.
